Customer Ratings & Reviews

Incredible load times compared to XB1. The controller feels sturdier but is nearly the same except for one picture capture button. Excellent picture quality that will likely only be held back by your tv if older and/or cheaper. Only negative i see is that it is big. I have the space but it may not fit for others or could stick out.

Normally when i upgrade systems i can't really notice a difference. but this thing is super fast and the graphics are so crispy! just be sure to upgrade your current games to the XS version for the games that allow it. the only flaw is the storage is definitely low so you will need to buy the expansion pack.

As a Childless Adult, this console brings me all the joy i hoped it would in this dark, gloomy political climate. it’s extremely fast, efficient, and quiet (it can be a little noisy when reading discs but oh well). it’s got little features like “quick resume” and so many usb ports for accessories or charging stuff if you’re into that. i’ve got both the expansion slot and a regular hard drive plugged in to that i have about 6Tb worth of gaming space and about half of it filled. This machine never even stutters. i love it.

Such a great upgrade from my Xbox one. I love it!! Super fast, lots of storage, great design.

Mainly as a PS fan, and this is my first Xbox since the Xbox 360, I really love the Series X. I got this to go along with my PS5 and I love both consoles to death. The Series X is a beast spec wise and the thing is super quiet. One thing I really love is how awesome the backwards compatibility is. Most consoles only go back one gen with backwards compatibility. The Series X can play XSX games, Xbox One games, Xbox 360 Games, and the original Xbox games all in box, Which is insane to me. Another thing that is such great value is Gamepass. You get access to all these games to play, just buy converting you Xbox Live to gamepass for $1. And you also get to play first party games from Microsoft game studios on release. One thing I will give it over the PS5 is the SSD space. The PS5 only come with 670 GB of space which gets filled up fairly quickly. The Series X comes with a 1TB SSD that I'm still putting games on since owning the system in April. The controller is the same as before with just a few changes. I wish they got rid of using batteries in controller and just came with built in rechargeable batteries like the PS5 does. Other than that, the system is awesome for both people who is new to Xbox, and people who loves what PlayStation and Xbox has to offer.

Runs smooth, super fast. Tons of storage. Better than ps5

Verified purchase and I have NO complaints. Very happy customer here.

The Series X is a conundrum. On the one hand, it is an incredibly powerful console when its paired with a 120 Hz TV. Games look incredible.

The new Series X is fantastic! Sharp 4K graphics and 60 to 120 fps looks amazing. Finally a true solid state internal memory for super fast load times and general overall responsiveness. It took me over a month to track one down, well worth the wait! Now to budget for an expansion memory card to help with the storage worries. Some games are huge! (Looking at your Cold War. LOL)

I jave been a Sony guy forever but knew i wanted an XBX especially after picking up my PS5. I bought this and have been playing stuff on Game Pass this while time. That is an amazing offering and is allowing to play all the Xbox games I missed. Also I didnt think it would be a huge deal but quick resume is an awesome feature that i wish the PS5 had.

I haven’t had a console since I was a kid, when my boyfriend moved in with me he was playing a lot of assassins Creed when the new one came out he realized he could not play it unless he had the new station so got the new console for Christmas. And I got him the game.

Great graphics, sound, and game play. Good to play movie, music, and other CDs and DVDs. Easy to install and initialize.

Fast, reliable, and swanky. I love my new Xbox series-X

Superb quality and graphics. The loading speed is a lot faster than I was used to and the controller feels great in my hand. Xbox ultimate gives me excellent game selection also.

Xbox Series X feels like the pinnacle of iterative improvement. Take everything good about Xbox One X, and take it to 11 with faster everything, while still keeping the disc drive and backwards compatibility, and you get this console. At $500, it initially feels rather expensive, until you realize just how much more expensive of a PC you need to buy to have the same experience. I would know--I tried. The only downsides would be twofold: one, you don't have a choice of alternative marketplace like Steam or Epic Store. Two, there's no true path to upgrade: with 4K games, I don't think the onboard 1TB memory is going to accommodate much, and the expansion storage is also only 1TB. I can't tell if this is a step forward or backward from the previous gen, as the storage is much, MUCH faster, but you're locked out of the best possible experience if you stray away from the OEM storage. In that regard, PS5 and PC look like much better bets. But I enjoy the console. It's not revolutionary, and looks like a mini fridge, but it is an incredibly competent piece of gaming hardware.

Upgraded from X1X, this is the next greatest Xbox you can get. Quick Start feature, graphical and performance improvements to existing Xbox One games and of course the SX Enhanced games! Quit thinking about it and if you can find one, buy it. I was lucky enough to grab one here at Best Buy (after a month of searching). Dang scalpers had grabbed most of them and wanted $800+!

Absolute best product Microsoft has -ever- put out, with exception to MS DOS 3.12. Amazing load speeds, probably due to the use of SSD, fast MEMs and "Cool" Cooling. Seriously, Microsoft REDESIGNED the motherboard to bend to its will! To make -YOU- happy! I'm guessing Microsoft is taking a loss on each of these units because a similar PC setup is MUCH more expensive. Game Pad/Controller: While it doesn't really LOOK like the controller has much of an update, it really FEELS like it has. Textured grips, a shorter trigger system - feels like they moved the shoulder buttons too, but can fully confirm that. The QUALITY of the Controller seems to have been MUCH improved - hoping this keeps up down the years with further Controller releases. No, I don't need a dedicated 'share' button in the middle there (that is new) - but it is map-able - as are the other buttons - so I guess I can use it at some point in time... UHD/4K Drive: This is the ONLY UHD/4K drive I will probably buy. Why? Because dedicated units are obscene in price and do less! Overall: At this point in time, pandemic-ridden times which bring-on a scarcity of product with an overabundance of time, its REALLY hard to get one's hands on this kind of Masterpiece. Once you do, however, you will find it is worth every penny and overexerted effort.

My son is very happy with his new game system. He's used it daily since receiving it with no issues. It integrated perfectly with the new television.

Fantastic console. Wanted to get this the day I heard about it. Was one of the lucky ones that secured a pre-order. Everything about the Series X is great. I love the design and the over aesthetics of it. Everything from loading games faster to making older games look great to adding HDR into non HDR games is awesome. I would highly recommend the Series line of Xboxs to anyone.

It's the most powerful console, but it's a little lost on me. I had an XBox One X, so I am a little salty that it had such a short shelf life. However, this is a lot snappier to load. Kind of sucks to only have 1TB, as that is used up quickly. An external USB drive is an option for older X Box One games. To get Series S|X games to play, they have to be installed on the high-speed internal storage, or a special module needs to be installed. Kind of a bummer, but I understand why that is. My limited number of games really ate up the space quickly. I think the controllers feel cheaper than the predecessor. They are good. I just think they made them feel lighter, in order to encourage controller upgrades. I can't even read the should button/trigger labels.
